Mr. R. Templeton’s Description 
and resembling a little thumb, towards which approaches the apex 
of the long, cylindric, curved finger which is articulated to the 
joint behind. In the female the leg has the first joint very large, 
ohsoletely subdivided, and by a longitudinal channel, marked out 
into two parts, the inner of which supports a very short bifurcate 
member capable of retraction, the outer the three last joints of the 
leg ; the basal of which is elongate, nearly straight, and with a 
spine or long tooth near its apex. The next joint smaller and 
shorter, with a tooth occupying a similar position, and an elongate 
tapering articulated process on the opposite side. The last joint 
dilates a little towards its apex, giving origin to three moderate- 
sized teeth, and one long, flat, and toothed process directed in- 
wards. 
To the first joint of the tail is attached beneath a biarticulate 
spatulate appendage ; it was confined to the left side of the female, 
and is probably a collapsed ovary. 
Length, 0.12 inch.
